So, I don't know exactly *how* you'd format a device as "fat32".
I used "mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/sda1"
Ah. I just do mkfs.vfat.
According to "man mkfs.vfat":
-F FAT-size
Specifies the type of file allocation tables
used (12, 16 or 32 bit). If nothing is speci‐
fied, mkdosfs will automatically select between
12, 16 and 32 bit, whatever fits better for the
file system size.
I figure that every HDD from the past 15 years is big enough for
mkfs.vfat to choode 32.
